Regi is the TraumaCoordinator at HSHSSt. Joseph’s Hospital. She has always wanted to help people. Regi says there are times in the emergency room when they’ve cried with patients and families and prayed with patients and families—it’s part of who they are as a department. It’s rewarding when people come back in and thank them for saving their lives.

Self Defence in the event of an active shooting or terrorist attack comes down to a number of key survival factors. We are running a new short series of ActiveShootingTrainingVideo for how to defend yourself in the event of being caught in an active shooting.
Part 1 of this new series explores some basic guidelines to get you started for the coming videos. This is a big change from our ‘how to fight videos’ as we are now going to focus on active self defence with no gimmicks or Hollywood tricks.
These are some simple things that may help you in advance which we discuss in the video:
Situational Awareness
As with any form of Self Defence training you must have a sense of situational awareness. Meaning you should know what is happening around you in your environment at any point of time. Having an awareness of the emergency exits of a building or potential funnels of attacks are important.
TakingCover from View and Fire
There is a difference in the type of cover that you take. Hence you walk into a building be aware which will provide cover from gun fire and which will provide cover from view. These are very different and will have a determining effect on your ability to survive an active shooter attack. Get his wrong and things are very likely to get worst.
Assess Decide Act Loop
In the event of an active shooter attack you must take action. Although panic is likely to set in you must assess the situation, make a clear decision on what to do, and then act on that decision. Be decisive. If you decide to seek cover then do so, but reassess the situation again. Make sure that you constantly loop through the process of assessing, deciding and acting. This is likely to prevent you from panicking or worst freezing in front of the gunman.

The Medical ECMOProgram: Transport
Dr. Matthew Bacchetta: We were consulted on a very young patient who was essentially dying at another hospital not too far from our own. We had been planning on trying to do ECMO Transport for a while and we were looking for that opportune moment when we could do it, and this young patient happened to present. She was gravely ill, in fact by the time we arrived there she had already had a cardiopulmonary arrest. We put her on ECMO emergently and we transported her back. Thankfully she did very well, she’s alive and well today, and we took that experience along with subsequent experiences and developed a full-fledged ECMO program.
Dr. Cara Agerstrand: Patients we transport on ECMO are typically people who have very severe forms of respiratory failure, very severe pneumonias, very severe forms of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, or ARDS, conditions that would make them unsafe to transport without the addition of ECMO support.
Dr. Matthew Bacchetta: We’ve also used our ECMO transport progam to bring in severely ill patients with Acute Pulmonary Embolisms which have a very high mortality if not managed acutely and correctly.
Dr. Cara Agerstrand: Once we accept a patient for ECMO our transfer center provides and sends a checklist to the referring facility. That checklist includes all the steps that we recommend the hospital follow in order to prepare the patient for ECMO Transport. Once our transport team arrives we kind of bring the whole package with us, we bring a surgeon, a surgical fellow, a perfusionist, and all the equipment we would need to place a patient safely on ECMO at the referring hospital. We would typically perform the procedure at the patient’s bedside and then transport them back to Columbia with the assistance of our critical care paramedics. One of the things we pride ourselves on at NYP Columbia is that we really have a multidisciplinary team of providers caring for the patients, anywhere from our medical team consisting of surgeons, medical intensivists, nurse practitioners, nurses, specialized consultants, physical and occupational therapists, pharmacists, care coordinators and dedicated social workers who have experience taking care of ECMO patients and are well aware of the needs these specific patients and families might have.
Dr. Matthew Bacchetta: Our team has traveled over seven thousand miles to transport patients, but most of our transports occur within about a hundred mile radius of our hospital, and we always have a team available to ride.

Juras was transferred to the hospital's full-service catheterization lab, the only one in the region that offers more than diagnostic capabilities. Additional services include treatment and surgery. A cardiologist in the lab discovered Juras had a blocked artery to his heart, cleared the blockage and inserted a stent.
Juras then recovered over the course of 10 days in the care of medical staff and employees in the hospital's cardiovascular care unit, before being released to go home April 14. "Absolutely a miracle what they did for me," said Juras. "I owe them my life."

Physical

Physical self-defense is the use of physical force to counter an immediate threat of violence. Such force can be either armed or unarmed. In either case, the chances of success depend on a large number of parameters, related to the severity of the threat on one hand, but also on the mental and physical preparedness of the defender.

Unarmed

Many styles of martial arts are practiced for self-defense or include self-defense techniques. Some styles train primarily for self-defense, while other martial or combat sports can be effectively applied for self-defense. Some martial arts train how to escape from a knife or gun situation, or how to break away from a punch, while others train how to attack. To provide more practical self-defense, many modern day martial arts schools now use a combination of martial arts styles and techniques, and will often customize self-defense training to suit the participants' lifestyles, occupations, age groups and gender, and physical and mental capabilities.

A fire department may also provide "fire protection" or fire prevention services, whereby firefighters visit homes and give fire safety advice and fit smoke alarms for members of the public. In many countries fire protection or prevention is seen as an important role for the fire service, as preventing a fire from occurring in the first place can save lives and property.

Organization

Fire departments are organized in a system of administration, services, training, and operations; for example:

SALEM, Ore. — April 17, 2012 — John Juras, 61, of Salem, is a true fighter and survivor. "If it wasn't for this team at Salem Hospital, I'd be dead," he said. His girlfriend drove him to Salem Hospital on April 4 after he felt chest pains. Juras' heart stopped beating outside the emergency department.
Hospital surveillance cameras caught what happened next as more than two-dozen people, including medical staff and hospital employees, swarmed outside to help Juras. A registered nurse performed CPR on Juras while he was still in the car. Once he was moved to a stretcher, another RN jumped on top and continued to perform CPR as he was wheeled into the emergency department.
The medical team spent 45 minutes trying to resuscitate Juras as his heartbeat faded in and out. The team used a defibrillator 10 times. Juras was transferred to the hospital's full-service catheterization lab, the only one in the region that offers more than diagnostic capabilities. Additional services include treatment and surgery. A cardiologist in the lab discovered Juras had a blocked artery to his heart, cleared the blockage and inserted a stent.
Juras then recovered over the course of 10 days in the care of medical staff and employees in the hospital's cardiovascular care unit, before being released to go home April 14. "Absolutely a miracle what they did for me," said Juras. "I owe them my life."

The medical team spent 45 minutes trying to resuscitate Juras as his heartbeat faded in and out. The team used a defibrillator 10 times. Juras was transferred to the hospital's full-service catheterization lab, the only one in the region that offers more than diagnostic capabilities. Additional services include treatment and surgery. A cardiologist in the lab discovered Juras had a blocked artery to his heart, cleared the blockage and inserted a stent.
Juras then recovered over the course of 10 days in the care of medical staff and employees in the hospital's cardiovascular care unit, before being released to go home April 14. "Absolutely a miracle what they did for me," said Juras. "I owe them my life."

Meet Regi: Registered Nurse, Emergency Department—Lifesaving Care

Regi is the TraumaCoordinator at HSHSSt. Joseph’s Hospital. She has always wanted to help people. Regi says there are times in the emergency room when they’ve cried with patients and families and prayed with patients and families—it’s part of who they are as a department. It’s rewarding when people come back in and thank them for saving their lives.

Self Defence in the event of an active shooting or terrorist attack comes down to a number of key survival factors. We are running a new short series of ActiveShootingTrainingVideo for how to defend yourself in the event of being caught in an active shooting.
Part 1 of this new series explores some basic guidelines to get you started for the coming videos. This is a big change from our ‘how to fight videos’ as we are now going to focus on active self defence with no gimmicks or Hollywood tricks.
These are some simple things that may help you in advance which we discuss in the video:
Situational Awareness
As with any form of Self Defence training you must have a sense of situational awareness. Meaning you should know what is happening around you in your environment at any point of time. Having an awareness of the emergency exits of a building or potential funnels of attacks are important.
TakingCover from View and Fire
There is a difference in the type of cover that you take. Hence you walk into a building be aware which will provide cover from gun fire and which will provide cover from view. These are very different and will have a determining effect on your ability to survive an active shooter attack. Get his wrong and things are very likely to get worst.
Assess Decide Act Loop
In the event of an active shooter attack you must take action. Although panic is likely to set in you must assess the situation, make a clear decision on what to do, and then act on that decision. Be decisive. If you decide to seek cover then do so, but reassess the situation again. Make sure that you constantly loop through the process of assessing, deciding and acting. This is likely to prevent you from panicking or worst freezing in front of the gunman.

ECMO Transport: Innovative, Life-Saving Medical Technology

The Medical ECMOProgram: Transport
Dr. Matthew Bacchetta: We were consulted on a very young patient who was essentially dying at another hospital not too far from our own. We had been planning on trying to do ECMO Transport for a while and we were looking for that opportune moment when we could do it, and this young patient happened to present. She was gravely ill, in fact by the time we arrived there she had already had a cardiopulmonary arrest. We put her on ECMO emergently and we transported her back. Thankfully she did very well, she’s alive and well today, and we took that experience along with subsequent experiences and developed a full-fledged ECMO program.
Dr. Cara Agerstrand: Patients we transport on ECMO are typically people who have very severe forms of respiratory failure, very severe pneumonias, very severe forms of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, or ARDS, conditions that would make them unsafe to transport without the addition of ECMO support.
Dr. Matthew Bacchetta: We’ve also used our ECMO transport progam to bring in severely ill patients with Acute Pulmonary Embolisms which have a very high mortality if not managed acutely and correctly.
Dr. Cara Agerstrand: Once we accept a patient for ECMO our transfer center provides and sends a checklist to the referring facility. That checklist includes all the steps that we recommend the hospital follow in order to prepare the patient for ECMO Transport. Once our transport team arrives we kind of bring the whole package with us, we bring a surgeon, a surgical fellow, a perfusionist, and all the equipment we would need to place a patient safely on ECMO at the referring hospital. We would typically perform the procedure at the patient’s bedside and then transport them back to Columbia with the assistance of our critical care paramedics. One of the things we pride ourselves on at NYP Columbia is that we really have a multidisciplinary team of providers caring for the patients, anywhere from our medical team consisting of surgeons, medical intensivists, nurse practitioners, nurses, specialized consultants, physical and occupational therapists, pharmacists, care coordinators and dedicated social workers who have experience taking care of ECMO patients and are well aware of the needs these specific patients and families might have.
Dr. Matthew Bacchetta: Our team has traveled over seven thousand miles to transport patients, but most of our transports occur within about a hundred mile radius of our hospital, and we always have a team available to ride.

Surveillance cameras capture lifesaving team effort

SALEM, Ore. — April 17, 2012 — John Juras, 61, of Salem, is a true fighter and survivor. "If it wasn't for this team at Salem Hospital, I'd be dead," he said. His girlfriend drove him to Salem Hospital on April 4 after he felt chest pains. Juras' heart stopped beating outside the emergency department.
Hospital surveillance cameras caught what happened next as more than two-dozen people, including medical staff and hospital employees, swarmed outside to help Juras. A registered nurse performed CPR on Juras while he was still in the car. Once he was moved to a stretcher, another RN jumped on top and continued to perform CPR as he was wheeled into the emergency department.
The medical team spent 45 minutes trying to resuscitate Juras as his heartbeat faded in and out. The team used a defibrillator 10 times. Juras was transferred to the hospital's full-service catheterization lab, the only one in the region that offers more than diagnostic capabilities. Additional services include treatment and surgery. A cardiologist in the lab discovered Juras had a blocked artery to his heart, cleared the blockage and inserted a stent.
Juras then recovered over the course of 10 days in the care of medical staff and employees in the hospital's cardiovascular care unit, before being released to go home April 14. "Absolutely a miracle what they did for me," said Juras. "I owe them my life."
